    I thinking the guy who was guarding was tying is shoes or something, that's why Beasley was yelling.

    I really think Martin needs to get off that ankle. The team can win this one if they keep up the defense.

    I know the Wolves aren't great but we have an extra step on our defense, especially our rotations.

    Is this what finally makes everyone realize that Aaron Brooks either need to be traded or not start?

    Rockets need to stop messing around with midget point guards. Get someone like Derrick Rose's size or above.

    Beasley getting fired up, the NBA needs more of that. Some competitiveness never killed anybody!

    So now we lead by 19, can we say that we have a chance to win? Without choking?

    The only problem with dominating games like this against a team like the T-Wolves, is that any extrapolations or inferences made about individual player abilities are largely unfounded due to the fact that the team is playing a very, very inferior squad.

    It's good that we're doing so well, but we can't forget that this is the T-Wolves. We're beating them because we're supposed to beat them.

    The real test will be how they handle the game down the stretch and during the 4th. Being able to shut out any team late, even the T-Wolves, will be a confidence booster for the Rockets, and can only help from there on out. Any individual stats, however, are pretty much irrelevant given the level of competition.

    That is exactly why they got Kevin Martin.

    Why don't we do that every time Yao is on the court?

    we have a good chance, but Yao is going to sit eventually and ish will be tired, so dont be suprised to see the lead cut significantly.

    It was. Khan said it towards Webber and compared Darko with Vlade.

    Webber was not amused.

    Or a hybrid of both. Kahn said Webber took time to develop, so would Darko.
